Description of the new type: [Technical field to which the new type belongs] This creation is about an electrostatic discharge protection circuit, especially an electrostatic discharge protection circuit suitable for a power chip. [Previous technology] Pressing, any two objects of different materials can cause static electricity (Static Electricity) 'when the object with static electricity comes into contact with the metal pins of the power chip. It will damage the internal circuit of the power chip via the gold 10 pin, which is the damage caused by the so-called Electro Static Discharge (Qing). The power chip's internal port P white group port also has an ESD protection circuit. Its main function is to provide an appropriate discharge path to avoid damage caused by ESD before ESD damages the internal circuit #. In addition, the protection circuit must only operate when ESD occurs, otherwise the input signal of the power chip will be removed and the input signal will not be transmitted to the internal circuit of the power chip. As shown in FIG. 1, the power chip 10 is internally provided with an electrostatic discharge (ESD) detection circuit 16 and an electrostatic discharge protection circuit 18 series. When ESD wants to flow from the power input terminal 12 or signal output 20 input terminal 14 into the power chip 10, the electrostatic discharge detection circuit 16 will detect this ESD and output an enable signal to the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 18, static electricity. The discharge protection circuit 18 can conduct this ESD to the ground terminal, so that this high voltage or large current cannot flow into the internal circuit 20, so as to avoid causing unexpected damage to the internal circuit 20. M276321 • The input voltage level of the power chip 10 is high. It is known that the electrostatic discharge "5" and the transistor system used inside the circuit 18 use field-effect transistors. Effect transistor (JFET) and metal oxide half field effect transistor (m0sfet), which has the advantages of smaller leakage current, smaller volume, less power consumption of the device, however, its disadvantages are slower response speed, The voltage (refers to the drain and source) is low, so it cannot meet the requirements of the power chip 1G for fast response and high cross-voltage (the voltage across the signal input / output terminal 14 to the ground). The main purpose of this creation is to provide An electrostatic discharge protection circuit for a power chip can not withstand higher input voltages. Another purpose of this creation is to provide an electrostatic discharge protection circuit for a power chip, which can provide a faster current output path. 15 To achieve the above Purpose, this creation discloses an electrostatic discharge protection circuit for a power chip, which is used to export the static electricity flowing in from the electrostatic discharge input terminal to the electrostatic discharge output terminal, which includes: a first bipolar The interface transistor is based on the enabling signal to introduce static electricity from the electrostatic discharge input terminal and derive it. The first conduction circuit is based on the enabling signal to transfer static electricity from the first bipolar 20-type interface transistor. Import and export; and the second bipolar junction transistor, which introduces static electricity from the first conducting circuit and exports it to the electrostatic discharge output terminal according to the enabling flood number; wherein the power chip further includes electrostatic discharge detection Circuit, when the electrostatic discharge detection circuit detects static electricity, it outputs an enabling signal to the electrostatic discharge protection circuit. M276321 [Embodiment Mode] In order to allow your review committee to better understand the technical content of this creation, five best specific implementations are given. The example is explained below. Because the bipolar junction transistor 5 (BJT) can withstand higher voltage drop and larger output current, and mentions: Faster response speed to provide a fast current output path, which can avoid the known static electricity. The lack of the discharge protection circuit 18, so the internal circuit of the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 18 in this creation uses at least one bipolar junction transistor. As shown in Figure 2, this creation The electrostatic discharge protection circuit 10 181 of the embodiment includes: NPN bipolar junction transistor 30, 31, and a first conducting circuit, wherein the NPN bipolar junction transistor 30 has a pole (极 ^ shirt) connected. To the signal output and input terminal 14, the NPN bipolar interface transistors 30 and 31 and the first conducting circuit 187 are connected to the output terminal of the electrostatic discharge test circuit 16, and the NPN bipolar interface The emitter of the transistor 30 is 15 poles / Emmer) and the drain of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 31 is connected to the first conducting circuit 187, and the emitter of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 31 is connected to the ground. The internal structure of a conducting circuit 187 may be composed of an NPN bipolar junction transistor or a diode. As shown in FIG. 7a, the first conducting circuit 187 may include 20 NPN bipolar junction transistors 39 and 40. The bases of the NpN bipolar junction transistors 39 and 40 are connected together. When κΝρΝ bipolar junction transistors 39 and 40 are turned on, they can withstand higher voltage drops, so they can indirectly increase the sustaining voltage drop (h〇lding v〇hag㈠) that the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 1 8 1 can withstand, so that Power 1C will not be damaged due to surge noise under normal operation. Or, as shown in M276321 and Figure 7b, the first conduction circuit 187 is composed of NPN bipolar junction transistor 41, a pole body 42, and 43. When the NPN bipolar junction transistor 41 is turned on, the diodes 42 and 43 can withstand twice the threshold voltage (about 1.4 volts), which can also indirectly increase the electrostatic discharge of this creation. 5 Protection circuit 1 8 1. The voltage drop that can withstand. S #Electrical discharge detection circuit 丨 6 When ESD is detected, the electrostatic discharge detection circuit 16 outputs an enable signal to the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 18 1. NPN bipolar junction transistor 30, 31 enters the forward active area (f〇rward aCtive), and cooperates with the operation of the first conduction circuit 187, can quickly output the ESD input 10 of the signal input terminal 14 to the ground terminal to prevent the internal circuit from being unexpected Damage due to electrostatic discharge protection circuit丨 8 丨 The sustaining voltage that can withstand is relatively high (beared by NPN bipolar junction transistors 30, 31 and the first conducting circuit 187). When the electrostatic discharge detection circuit 16 outputs an error due to noise, it is enabled. At the time of signal, the voltage change caused by noise is not large, and the operation of electrostatic discharge protection circuit 181 cannot be smoothly enabled, so that the interference caused by noise to the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 181 can be reduced. As shown, the second embodiment of the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 182 of the present invention includes an NPN bipolar junction transistor 32 and 33 and a second conducting circuit 188, wherein the drain of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 32 is connected Zhixin No. 20 input / output terminal 14, the bases of NPN bipolar junction transistor 30 and 31 are connected to the output of electrostatic discharge detection circuit 16, the emitter of NPN bipolar junction transistor 32 and the NPN dual The drain of the polar junction transistor 33 is connected to the second conducting circuit 188, and the emitter of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 33 is connected to the ground. Comparing Figure 2 and Figure 3, you can find that the electrostatic discharge protection of this creation M276321 circuit 182 Outside the circuit 188, the second conducting circuit 188 is not connected to the bases of the NPN bipolar junction transistors 30 and 31. The internal structure of the second conducting circuit 188 may be a resistance of zero ohms or more than one diode Since the resistance of zero ohms can be regarded as 5 short circuits, it is not shown here. As shown in FIG. 8, the first conducting circuit 1 87 stacks the diode 44 on the diode 45. Since the diodes 44 and 45 can withstand twice the threshold voltage, it can indirectly increase the voltage drop that the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 182 of this creation can withstand. Since the operation of the ESD protection circuit 1 82 in this embodiment is similar to the operation of the ESD protection circuit 1 81 in the previous embodiment, it will not be described further. As shown in Fig. 4, the third embodiment of the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 183 of this invention includes a second-conductor circuit 189 and an NPN bipolar junction transistor 34. Among them, one terminal of the third conducting circuit 189 is connected to the signal input / output terminal 14 'and the other terminal is connected to the collector of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 34. The base of the NPN 15 bipolar junction transistor 34 is connected to the output terminal of the electrostatic discharge detection circuit ^ 6, and the emitter of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 34 is connected to the ground terminal. The internal structure of the second conducting circuit 189 may be composed of a transistor or a diode. As shown in FIG. 9a, a thick oxide N-type transistor (Field_〇xide 20 NMOS), or as shown in FIG. 9b, has parasitics. Metal-oxide half field-effect n-type transistors (NMOS) of diodes, or stacked diodes as shown in FIG. 9c. It is conceivable that users can also use p-type electronic components instead of n-type electronic components to connect to similar results. M276321 When the ESD detection circuit 16 detects ESD, the ESD detection circuit 16 outputs an enable signal to the ESD protection circuit. 8 3, N p N bipolar junction transistor 34 enters the forward active area ( Forwar (iactive), and cooperate with the operation of the third conduction circuit 189, can quickly output 5 ESD input from the signal input and output terminal 14 to the ground terminal to prevent the internal circuit 20 from being unexpectedly damaged. Because of electrostatic discharge protection The voltage that the circuit 183 can withstand is higher (beared by the NPN bipolar junction transistor 34 and the third conduction circuit 189). When the electrostatic discharge detection circuit 16 outputs an error enable signal due to noise, The voltage caused by the signal does not change much, and the operation of the 10 ESD protection circuit 183 cannot be smoothly enabled. In this way, the interference generated by the noise on the ESD protection circuit 183 can be reduced. As shown in Figure 5, this creation The fourth embodiment of the ESD protection circuit 84 includes a third conducting circuit 18 9, an NPN bipolar junction transistor 3 5, a first conducting circuit 187, and an NPN bipolar junction transistor 36.

The emitter of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 36 is connected to the ground. The first conducting circuit 87 is also connected to 20 to the NPN bipolar junction. The emitter of transistor 35 and the collector of NPN bipolar junction transistor 36. Because the electrostatic discharge protection circuit of this embodiment 84 operates in the same manner as the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 1 8 of the first embodiment or the third The electrostatic discharge protection circuit 183 of the embodiment is similar, and will not be described here. M276321 As shown in FIG. 6, the fifth embodiment of the electrostatic discharge protection circuit i 85 of the present invention includes a third conducting circuit 189, and NPN bipolar Junction transistor 37, second conducting circuit 188, and NPN bipolar junction transistor 38. Among them, the third conducting circuit 1 89 is connected to the signal input / output terminal 14 and the NPN dual 5-polar junction transistor. 3 7 collector, NPN bipolar Surface transistor 3 7, NPN bipolar junction transistor 3 8 The base is connected to the output terminal of the electrostatic discharge detection circuit i 6 and the emitter of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 36 is connected to the ground terminal. The two-conducting circuit 188 is also connected to the emitter of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 37 and the collector of the NPN bipolar junction transistor 38. Since the operation mode of the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 185 of the ten examples and the second implementation The electrostatic discharge protection circuit 182 of this example is similar to the electrostatic discharge protection circuit j 83 of the third embodiment, and will not be described here. As shown in FIG. 10a, the electrostatic discharge detection circuit 161 may be connected to the valley by a resistor in series, and connected to the inverter, or as shown in FIG. 1 Ob, the electrostatic discharge primary test circuit 15 162 may be connected in series with a resistor. When ESD is input from the signal input / output terminal 14, the ESD detection circuit 161 or 162 can output an enable signal (high level) to the ESD protection circuit 18 to prevent the internal circuit 20 from being damaged by 0%. In the above description, the signal input / output terminal 14 is used as the input terminal of the ESD, and the ground terminal is used as the output terminal of the ESD. It is conceivable that the user can also use the power input terminal 16 as the ESD input terminal, and the signal output input terminal 14 as the ESD export terminal, or the power input terminal 16 as the ESD input terminal, and ground The terminal is the ESD2 lead-out terminal. At this time, the operations of the electrostatic discharge detection circuit 16 and the electrostatic discharge protection circuit 18 are similar to the above description, and are not described here. 11 M276321 As can be seen from the above description, this creation is based on the use of bipolar junction transistors and conduction circuits in electrostatic discharge protection circuits. Bipolar junction transistors withstand higher voltage drops, faster conduction rates, and The large output current can avoid the role of electrostatic discharge protection circuit caused by noise. 5 The above-mentioned embodiments are merely examples for convenience of explanation.
